About this manual

The XTR105 is a single‑chip 4‑20 mA current transmitter designed for platinum RTD temperature sensors and bridge circuits. It integrates two 800 µA precision current sources, a voltage‑to‑current converter, and second‑order linearization that typically yields a 40:1 improvement in linearity. The device operates from a wide supply range of 7.5 V to 36 V and is offered in DIP‑14 and SO‑14 packages.

Typical applications include industrial process control, factory automation, SCADA remote data acquisition, and remote temperature or pressure sensing. The XTR105 provides low offset drift (0.4 µV/°C), low output current noise (30 nA), and high common‑mode rejection (≥86 dB), making it suitable for high‑accuracy measurement systems.
